Example 5.1
Draw the free-body diagram of the uniform beam. The
beam has a mass of 100kg.
Example 5.4
Draw the free-body diagram of the unloaded platform
that is suspended off the edge of the oil rig. The platform
has a mass of 200 Kg.
Example 5.5
Determine the horizontal and vertical components of
reaction on the beam caused by the pin at B and the
rocker at A. Neglect the weight of the beam in the
calculations.
Example 5.7
The member shown in the figure is pin-connected at A
and rests against a smooth support at B.
Determine the horizontal and vertical components of
reaction at the pin A.
Example 5.9
Determine the horizontal and vertical components of
reaction on the member at the pin A, and the normal
reaction at the roller B in the figure.
Example 5.12
Determine the support reactions on the member in the
figure.
The collar at A is fixed to the member and can slide
vertically along the vertical shaft.
Example 5.13
The lever ABC is pin-supported at A and connected to a
short link BD. If the weight of the members are negligible,
determine the force of the pin on the lever at A.
